Plague Knight Amiibo

Plague Knight is one of the four playable Shovel Knight characters across the multi-campaign Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove anthology (Shovel Knight, Plague Knight, Specter Knight, King Knight each got their own campaign). His character beat is being an alchemist-knight who wields a giant beaked plague-doctor mask and combat-throws bombs and potions at enemies. The amiibo released April 5, 2017 as part of the Shovel Knight three-figure expansion wave.

Yacht Club Games's commitment to producing four separate playable-character campaigns for the original Shovel Knight purchase was the indie-revival's most substantial achievement. Four campaigns for one purchase.

Tap him on compatible Shovel Knight games to unlock Plague Knight-themed bonus content, including potion-themed unlocks and Plague Knight-specific co-op-mode features.

He pairs with Shovel Knight, Specter Knight, King Knight (the Shovel Knight quartet), Shovel Knight Gold Edition, and the broader figure-line indie cluster. Most Shovel Knight fans played the Plague Knight campaign at least once because the alchemist-bomb-throwing combat is the most tonally-distinct campaign in the anthology.
